As Editors of the Orthopedics Hyperguide, an educational Web site that is dedicated to delivering top-quality content to orthopedic professionals, we would like to ensure that all of our users are familiar with the recently adopted Fellowship of the American Association of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) Standards of Professionalism on Orthopaedists-Industry Conflicts of Interest (SOPs). The SOPs establish mandatory, minimum levels of acceptable conduct for Fellows and Members of the AAOS who engage in relationships with industry. They focus on how orthopedic surgeons serve the best interests of the patient and profession while participating in academic or commercial ventures.
